Academic calendar and intakes: how and when you start
Fungaris does not follow a single academic year. Programmes open in intakes throughout the year, so you can start when it suits you rather than waiting for September.
How intakes work
Each programme opens in intakes: a group of students starts together on a set date and follows the live sessions as a cohort with the same professor. Intakes are scheduled throughout the year and vary from programme to programme, depending on group size and the professor's availability.
Because dates change as groups fill up, we do not publish a fixed calendar. When you contact admissions, they confirm the next start date for the programme you are interested in, the day and time of the live sessions and the deadline to secure your place.
Typical structure by level
| Level | Modules | Typical length |
|---|---|---|
| Course | 6 modules | 3 months · 72 hours |
| Diploma | 8 modules | 6 months · 192 hours |
| Master | 12 modules | 10 months · 432 hours |
The rhythm of a programme
Whatever the level, programmes follow the same pattern.

Calendar questions
When is the next intake?
It depends on the programme. Ask admissions and they will confirm the next start date and the session schedule.
What time are the live sessions?
Each intake has its own fixed time, announced before the start. Admissions can tell you how it translates to your time zone.
What if I start a programme and cannot attend some sessions?
Recordings are posted on the campus. Keep in touch with your professor so you do not fall behind on exercises and the project.
Can I move to a later intake?
Write to admissions as early as possible; they will tell you what options exist for your programme.
